Freddie Mac today released the results of its Primary Mortgage Market Survey® , showing the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 7.18%.
“Mortgage rates continued their downward trajectory this week, improving the environment for prospective homebuyers against a backdrop of strong economic growth,” said Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s Chief Economist.

- The 30-year FRM averaged 7.18% as of November 5, 2026, down from last week when it averaged 7.24%. A year ago at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 6.22%.
- The 15-year FRM averaged 6.57%, down from last week when it averaged 6.60%. A year ago at this time, the 15-year FRM averaged 5.50%.
The PMMS® is focused on conventional, conforming, fully amortizing home purchase loans for borrowers who put 20% down and have excellent credit.
